Abstract

The DEK Travel Massager consists of a vest, a plurality of kneading and vibrating modules and heating elements within the vest, and a power source connected to the kneading and vibrating modules and heating elements. The device is worn by an individual over his shoulder, back and neck. The power source located within The DEK Travel Massager provides power to the vibrating and kneading modules and heating elements via insulated wires. A user can customize the heating intensity of the heating elements and the vibration and kneading action of the modules via a remote control. The user can also specify certain modules for vibration or kneading and turn the power off and on using the remote control.
